A Ripple Tree

From Lessons Learned by Antoine Murphy (author's profile)

Transcription

A Ripple Tree

A mother sits at home. She used to
Drink. Now she processes. PTSD.
Post. Traumatic. Stress. Disorder.
A sister needs to talk to her
Brother. But she can't. Call the prison!
& ask for her brother.
A daughter needs. A daughter wants.
To run into her father's loving arms.
Visiting rules won't allow.
She would like to share her day.
With her father. But visiting hours
Are over.

Haiku

Winter is 2 cold
Summer is 2 hot
Prison is 2 confined
